Maison Bonnot Paris was founded by François Deprez and named in tribute to his grandfather, Jacques Bonnot, a professor of hypokhâgne. By giving his Parisian jewellery business this name, he honours a remarkable legacy, for Jacques Bonnot did not merely impart academic knowledge. He shared a vision of the world, professional rigour and a passion for work well done. Bonnot Paris draws inspiration from this to offer far more than simply jewellery: a true experience, together with a meaningful story behind every creation.
François Deprez is a gemstone dealer with a passion for coloured precious stones. Through the creation of bespoke jewellery in Paris, not only is every stone meticulously selected, but each creation is also conceived as a work of art in its own right. Attention to detail and the pursuit of perfection were also principles that guided Jacques Bonnot’s teaching.
Maison Bonnot goes beyond the creation of exceptional jewellery, preserving a legacy founded on a humanist education and timeless values. Having a fine jewellery piece created in Paris by our maison means joining a tradition that celebrates authenticity, excellence and the profound dimension of every creation.
